Requires More Thought

Pejman had a link to an "ethical philosophy selector." Here's how I came out:

John Stuart Mill (100%)

Kant (93%)

Epicureans (90%)

Jeremy Bentham (78%)

Jean-Paul Sartre (77%)

Prescriptivism (65%)

Ayn Rand (64%)

Thomas Hobbes (60%)

David Hume (54%)

Nietzsche (54%)

Spinoza (53%)

Cynics (42%)

Nel Noddings (42%)

Aquinas (41%)

Aristotle (41%)

Stoics (39%)

Ockham (29%)

St. Augustine (18%)

Plato (16%)

I'm not sure I agree completely with the rankings (Hobbes is too low, for example), but this clearly indicates that I need to read more philosophy in any case.Posted by Jeff at December 17, 2003 09:09 AM | Link Cosmos
